Leaders of this new school have a clear vision and the skills to deliver a good education. They have high expectations for themselves, the staff and pupils alike. Most pupils join this school after being out of full-time education for long periods. Staff build up strong working relationships with the pupils. They motivate them to do their best. Pupils told us that they enjoy coming to school. They see school as a safe and stable place. They know that staff will support them to overcome their anxieties and build their self-confidence. Everyone is respectful, and pupils look out for each other. Pupils said that there is no bullying. This was confirmed in the school’s records, and by parents. They are confident that, should bullying occur, leaders would take swift action. The curriculum is well balanced. It supports pupils’ social and emotional development, as well as their academic achievement. Staff help pupils to manage their own feelings and behaviour. Consequently, they behave well throughout the day and contribute positively in lessons. They achieve well across the subjects. Older pupils are working toward recognised qualifications, including GCSEs and vocational accreditations. Pupils appreciate the experiences and educational visits that they have outside the classroom. These experiences prepare them well for life in modern Britain.
